Storing Beef: In the freezer, beef lasts at least 12 months; in the refrigerator, raw ground beef for 1-2 days, roasts, and steaks for 3-5 days.

Thawing: Avoid microwaving; thaw in the refrigerator or use cold water for quicker thawing.

Use a Marinade or Seasoning: Enhance the moisture of meat with a marinade or add seasoning to enhance the flavor of the beef.

Cooks Faster: Grass-fed beef cooks 30% faster, so use a thermometer and watch the temperature closely.

Cook to Medium-Rare: Ideal at rare (120°–125°) to medium-rare (130°-140°F) temperatures; slow cooking for well-done preferences. Having a meat thermometer on hand is helpful to ensure accurate and proper cooking techniques.

Let Rest: Allow the beef to rest covered for 8 to 10 minutes after cooking to redistribute juices.
